Quotes (from this video)
- Oh my gosh I thought the way that the game ended just that value track where where it meets together and the game's over is really interesting
- It seems disjointed but in the world of flower specifically it worked out perfectly is you're planting these things and then it kind of makes them stronger because people are buying them or whatever I like that a lot
- I thought this game was simple and it was it was simple and elegant and I was pleasantly surprised
- Shame on me because I as soon as we I read the r book I was like this is immediately clear it sounds really fun
